I got it at IKEA .. just a simple table top and i got the legs separately as well at IKEA
6-year-old iPod, 5-year-old display, 4-year-old Macbook, 2-year-old iPhone
As you can see, apart from peripherals, I haven't really kept up with Apple's latest hardware releases
Love it, looks really great. What's the speaker system, may I ask?

Cheater!
Nice setup. Which speakers are those and how do you like them?Thanks!
They're Logitech Z4s. I find them fantastic, but I know that in the states the Z-2300s are only another $15 or so for some reason. I would go with those, unless you find these on sale. I got mine for only $50. If you can only find regular price stuff, the Z-2300s are worth the slight difference in price. Here in Canada the Z-2300s are another $50, for some messed up reason. Sucks.

I like the notepad/pencil holder-- where's it from?
Also, where's your desk lamp from? Thanks!
I had the Z4s which cost me £50 ($75), but they broke within a month so I got a refund and chose the Z2300s instead which cost me £92 ($138) at the time (they're now £110/$165). So it sounds like you got yourself a good deal there. I agree though, if you can get the Z2300s get them, but the Z4s are still fantastic speakers.
That's a Wacom tablet. It comes with a plastic holder for the pen.
The lamp is from IKEA. It's only $10 or so. It's called the TERTIAL. My first one eventually had the little twisty knobby thing get stuck, so I had to buy a new one. No big deal. Honestly, just buy two, and a bunch of bulbs, and you'll be fine for a few years. This thing can safely extend about two feet if you clamp it properly!
Careful though, it doesn't have a little arm that you can grab to move it with, and the outer shade can get VERY hot (it's metal after all), but it's a small sacrifice for such a bright, robust lamp. Plus it's ten bucks.[Edit] Link to the lamp: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20370383

I know your probably sick of the "what's that" questions but what keyboard are you using? Many thanks.
Duly noted. Unfortunately I couldn't find the 11W E26s when I went to IKEA, so I just bought a crapload of regular 60W halogens.
It's an HP Wireless Elite keyboard. Best keyboard I've ever used. Got it off eBay. Only way I know of besides buying an HP TouchSmart computer. Fortunately it's redonkulously cheap and I'm probably going to buy a new one soon just because this one's so old. This keyboard has zero lag, is about half an inch thick at its thickest point, has a footprint that's only bested by the old Apple wireless keyboards, and accepts AAA batteries that will last you about a year of heavy use.

Sweet thanks. I meant that wooden box to the right of the wacom though. Sorry, wasn't clear about it.
Thanks for the quick reply! I think I'm gonna pick myself one up.
You can also get them from HP: HP Wireless Elite Keyboard, but probably not as cheap as eBay.
Thanks for the info, gonna check out eBay and if not I'll buy one directly!
Edit: Shipping costs to the UK suck!
Would this work for you Amazon.co.uk: HP FQ480AA#ABU Wireless Elite Keyboard-Blank KB (UK/Northern Ireland)
Those are also from IKEA. Comes in a set of 2 for like $6.
Also, for the keyboard, turns out HP has indeed started selling it separately. It's even listed on BestBuy.ca. Have a look at a local electronics retailer maybe. I'm gonna go pick one up soon as it's on sale for $60 with a mouse. Beats ordering it from eBay and having to wait.
This is my setup@the studio. At home I just have my Macbook. I just moved in so all I have is that card table I just bought and the monitor on it. But the monitor is pretty nifty though. I do have a lot of room to work with on that wall so after a few clients I shall be paying the ikea site a visit!
